Flashback Friday – Dana’s Granner.
Here’s today’s Flashback Friday:
When I read Dana’s Mother’s Day post, I knew it would be perfect for Flashback Friday! I have to say that Dana is pretty much probably one of the nicest bloggers out there (which you already know), and I am so happy that she is allowing me to bring her AND Granner to Sew Much Ado for today’s Flashback Friday. Here’s what Dana wrote on her original post:
Granner was a lady who engaged the whole room. People noticed her cheerful smile and wanted to be around her. At 5’11”, she was someone you noticed. And when I look at my love for sewing, I know that much of it came from her. She loved to sew and she loved fashion. She sewed almost all of her clothing as a young lady and as a married mom. It wasn’t until she passed away a few years ago that my mom brought out her dresses for us to look at. They were amazing! (and so was her waist-size). Such detail, such skill. I’m sure these ensembles looked even cooler in color but here are a few Patricia Rogerson originals (from the 40s and 50s):
I’m sure one day Dana’s own grandchildren will be in awe, sifting through the things she MADE (wow, that pun was actually not planned). I hope you all have a great weekend!
QUE BEBÉ TAN HERMOSO!!! Y SI NO VEO MAL, TIENEN LA MISMA SONRISA LAS DOS!!!

Those are incredible and she looks and sounds like an incredible woman. Funny how styles (like the middle outfit) make their comebacks. These old pictures are awesome – I loved seeing them! Thanks Dana.
